The People's Pharmacy

Today's ditty: Young MC - Bust A Move

I've stumbled across a most excellent source for health care and treatment information - The People's Pharmacy. This resource includes books, a radio show series and an internet website. It originated with a book of the same title written by Joe and Terry Graedon [source]:

In 1976, when The People's Pharmacy® was originally published, it was one of the first books providing drug and health information to consumers. It went on to become a number one bestseller. Since then, Joe and Terry Graedon have gone on to write 18 additional books, one of which was a medical thriller co-authored with Tom Ferguson, MD (No Deadly Drug, Pocket Books, 1992). In addition, they write The People's Pharmacy® syndicated newspaper column, distributed by King Features®, co-host an award-winning health talk show on public radio, and speak frequently on health issues.

I often enjoy listening to Joe and Terry's radio show on lazy Saturday mornings before getting out of bed. The health experts they've had on their show run the gamut - from hard medical science researchers to herbal healers. The material they cover is often very entertaining as well as seriously informational. I particularly enjoy the stories and testimonials of the call ins by their listeners.

Here's a sampling of some of the excellent information from the Graedons:
